VicPD faces looming crisis despite lower crime rate Police department worries about changing nature of reporting for officers Don Descoteau News staff

Safe and secure in the Capital City – Victoria’s new motto, perhaps? In his state of the city speech to Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce members, Mayor Dean Fortin trumpeted a significant regional reduction in severe crimes and the region’s sub-B.C. average overall crime rate – both largely due to falling rates in the city – as signs Victoria is on the right track in its efforts to attract both shoppers and residents downtown. On Tuesday at the Union Club, he pointed to such city initiatives as the late-night police task force, late-night taxi stands and Bar Watch as helping to create a safer downtown. Such moves helped the Victoria Police Department experience a 26-per-cent reduction in the number of public disorder calls last year, he said. The tone of Fortin’s speech was upbeat: the Johnson Street Bridge project will provide hundreds of local jobs, city-subsidized housing is getting dozens of people off the street and the city’s kitchen waste program is posting betterthan-expected results. But city policing faces an underlying crisis. PlEASE SEE: Writing reports, Page A15

Message went unheard: James Adrian Dix staying on as B.C. NDP leader Don Descoteau News staff

Victoria-Beacon Hill NDP MLA-elect Carole James looks forward to a thorough party review in the wake of a surprising provincial election loss May 14 . She also feels good that Adrian Dix announced Wednesday he will stay on as B.C. NDP leader in the near future, as the party analyzes how its pre-election lead in the polls evaporated and left it with three less seats, 33, than it had to start the campaign. “The fact Adrian is staying in the short term to help us through that process, and has said the party membership will make the

determination on what happens next – I’m really proud of him for that,” James said from her home in James Bay. “It shows that this is a democracy. And it also will provide us with some focus to get ready for the legislative session.” The NDP will likely vote at its convention in November on whether to hold a leadership race, she added. One of the key aspects the NDP must look at during the review, she said, was how it communicates its platform and policies and the way it connects with voters. While the voter turnout was marginally up in B.C. – 52 per cent of eligible voters cast ballots – the turnout was down in all seven Greater Victoria constituencies, five of which were won outright by the NDP. James said voter apathy is a problem all parties

need to work to address. Speaking at a press conference in Vancouver on Wednesday, Dix didn’t specify a time frame for the election post-mortem. He did say he will work to prepare the NDP opposition to hold the government to its election commitments. “I assure you this review will spare nothing and no one, least of all me,” Dix said. “It must address the strategy and tactics we employed in the election, and it must examine the fundamental question of who we are as a party and our relationship with the people of B.C.” Dix took responsibility for mishandling a campaign that began with the NDP expecting a strong majority government after four years of turmoil in the B.C. Liberals’ ranks over the harmonized sales tax and other issues. He singled out as a significant error

“In an ideal world I’d love to see no poll results released during the campaign.” – Carole James his surprise mid-campaign decision to turn against the proposal to expand the Trans-Mountain oil pipeline that runs from northern Alberta to Burnaby and Washington state. Some James fans have wondered aloud whether the party might have

defeated the Liberals with James, NDP leader from 2003 to 2011, at the helm. “I was proud to run with Adrian and went into this election as a strong member of Adrian’s team,” James said. “I don’t hang onto things. Rather than look back at what might have been, it’s more important to look ahead to the next (legislative) session.” Asked about the public opinion polls that predicted an NDP victory, James laughed. “In an ideal world I’d love to see no poll results released during the campaign,” she said. “But I think that horse was let out of the barn a long time ago. The world is changing and people want information.” Clark planned to meet with her team of candidates in Vancouver yesterday. – with files from Tom Fletcher editor@vicnews.com

An 85-year-old Saanich man and his 59-year-old daughter were injured in a random home invasion Monday night. Around 10:20 p.m. a man forced his way through the front door of a home in the 3500-block of James Heights. Saanich police Sgt. Steve Eassie said the intruder – described as being in his late 20s or early 30s – physically assaulted the elderly man and his daughter. The woman was able to escape to a neighbour’s house to call police. The 89-year-old man remains hospitalized with serious head injuries, police said. Eassie said investigators haven’t been able to determine a motive, adding “there are no indications that the victims of this crime were involved in any activities that could have led them to be targets of such an attack.” A brown 1999 Toyota Camry with B.C. licence plate HWM 644 was stolen from the home. As of Wednesday the vehicle had not yet been located. Police said the victims didn’t know their attacker. The suspect remains at large. He is described as being a six-foot-tall white male with a heavy build. He was wearing a white T-shirt and dark pants. Police are asking anyone with information on the attack to call investigators at 250-475-4356 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-2228477. kslavin@saanichnews.com

Deputy chief leaving VicPD News staff

OOOps ! Overstocked! sale

Deputy Chief John Ducker is calling it quits after 34 years with the Victoria Police Department. Ducker posted the announcement to his police blog May 15, chronicling some of his proudest achievements with VicPD over the years. “It was a difficult call for me in deciding not to compete for the upcoming chief’s position at VicPD. But with the standard chief constable term being five years, the prospect of committing to another five years of police work was too much for me and my wife at this stage of the game,” he wrote. Among his best memories, Ducker cites being possibly the first officer in Canada to arrest a suspect by reading them their charter rights. “I watched Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and Queen Elizabeth on the TV in the lunch room signing the (Charter of Rights and Freedoms) into law on the 17th of April 1982 and as the ink was drying I was sent to a shoplifter at the old A&B Sound

Store on Yates,” he said on his blog. Retired 26-year VicPD veteran Bill Naughton, a former inspector who worked with Ducker in management, recalled his former colleague as bringing a steadying hand and a big-picture vision to the department. “I think John was always someone who had that very grounded, pragmatic view of people and issues,” Naughton said. “He had that quality of being able to perceive situations clearly and a remarkable ability to articulate a vision around improvements in how we delivered services.” While he was always “a good crook catcher,” Naughton said, Ducker’s legacy will likely be the improved collaborative relationships between the police and social service agencies in Victoria. His compassion for the people who struggle in society led him to support such preventative programs as community court and VICOT (Victoria Integrated Community Outreach Team). Among the personal achievements Ducker is proud of, he helped increase VicPD’s officer numbers in 2007 and 2008, during one of its toughest budgetary crises. “Former Victoria city manager Penny Ballantyne was a huge supporter of this effort as well and I’ll never forget her for the friendship and advice she offered,” he wrote. Ducker will retire in September. To read his full retirement post, visit vicpd.ca/blog. – with files from Don Descoteau

Hospitals foundation begins spring campaign The Victoria Hospitals Foundation launched its spring campaign Wednesday to help fund a $1.4-million Gamma-CT Scanner for Royal Jubilee Hospital. The foundation hopes to fundraise $375,000. “This leading edge equipment combines two imaging technologies in one exam, which means patients receive a complete diagnosis sooner, and medical imaging waitlists are reduced for everyone,” said Alan Lowe, vice-chair of the foundation. The Gamma-CT scanner takes two scans at precisely the same time, combining a nuclear medicine scan with a CT scan. This creates one high-resolution image that captures everything doctors need for a diagnosis in just one appointment, allowing patients to get treatment more quickly. Royal Jubilee Hospital has the only

medical imaging department on the Island with a Gamma-CT Scanner. “To pinpoint a tumour or find the exact location of an infection or serious bone pain, a patient could previously go through two or more medical scans,” said radiologist Dr. Kevin Forkheim. “But now, the high-definition images taken with the Gamma-CT Scanner provide a real time picture of how disease is impacting a person’s body. This means we can offer treatments or surgeries that are as precise as possible. Many people will benefit significantly from this sophisticated equipment — it allows us to become better medical detectives.” Donations can be made by returning the direct mail letter residents will receive at home by contacting the Victoria Hospitals Foundation at 250519-1750 or online at victoriahf.ca. editor@vicnews.com

OUR VIEW

Entering the era of efficient homes Victoria has come a long way from the days of big drafty homes with thin single-pane windows, no insulation in the walls and heated by large inefficient furnaces. These days new homes come with lowflush toilets and double panes, energy efficient appliances and better overall construction to keep indoor environments comfortable for as low a cost as possible. In reality, this is the tip of the iceberg in terms of home energy efficiency. Heating through oil or natural gas or electric isn’t getting cheaper and huge strides can still be made in terms of “normal” efficiency for the average home. Provincial and federal governments need to fund continuous and much more aggressive incentive programs to actually make a dent in terms of energy savings for homeowners. Successful provincial subsidy programs such as LiveSmart B.C., according to its website, invested $110 million into home energy upgrades and has helped homeowners cut their heating bills from 15 to 28 per cent. Despite this, LiveSmart ended on March 31 this year (FortisBC and BC Hydro have extended aspects of the program for another year). Programs to improve homes shouldn’t be a passing fad – it’s one of the most direct ways governments can help its residents save money. From the passive home recently built in Saanich that will likely have a heating bill 90 per cent less than an equivalent conventional home, its clear that there is a lot of room for improvement in home design, and for a price that demands a little more up front in return for utility bill savings each month. The Eco-Sense house in Highlands too – a house made of cob, that generates its own power from photovoltaics and solar panels, and recycles its grey water and wastewater – demonstrates that homes don’t have to be outrageously wasteful and damaging entities on the landscape. B.C. is looking to upgrade its building code for better minimum efficiency standards. This can’t come quick enough. The technology to build affordable, highly energy efficient homes is here. Developers need to provide it, and home buyers need to demand it. What do you think? Give us your comments by e-mail: editor@vicnews.com or fax 250-386-2624.

These are effective and valuable so I’m proud to say Saanich is now a member of all integrated units. All of this comes at a price. It would indeed be cheaper to eliminate our “no call too small” policy. And like some of our neighbours, we could reduce costs from withdrawing from some of the integrated police units. Yet we believe that public safety is a priority and that we can keep Saanich safe by providing the best of both worlds: excellent quality community policing backed up by integrated regional units for specialized and support services. So what do you think? Are you willing to pay for the cost of this community policing model? Would you be willing to give up our “no call too small” policy? Do you support paying more to join integrated units within the region? We’d welcome your feedback. Comment on the Saanich News website or on Twitter @frank_leonard with the hashtag #mayorsview.

LETTERS

Self-righteous NDP lost election on their own Re: Electors in B.C. fooled by Liberals (Letters, May 17) I suggest that it is the lack of comprehension of the real reason for the NDP failure and non mea culpa attitudes of the likes of Mr. Perkins that may well keep the NDP out of office for some considerable time. The election was lost by the NDP, rather than won by the Liberals. Simply put, the majority

of the electorate had three main issues the NDP inadequately addressed. The first, second and third were concern about the economy. With the current world financial uncertainty, it is natural that thoughtful voters would be uneasy with a party which has traditionally focused on redistribution of wealth, rather than creation of wealth. The

NDP put forward an election platform which called for spending on a plethora of social programs before knowing if they were affordable or how they could be financed, other than simply by increasing taxes to corporations and the rich. I would also suggest that the NDP’s self-righteous view, that all of B.C. is against oil pipelines and more tankers in the straits of

Juan de Fuca, is off the mark and cost them crucial votes. It would be wonderful to have a government that would simultaneously champion economic growth and have rewards shared more equitably; one that increased spending on social programs and education, commensurate with financial resources, and reviewed key environmental issues with the

objective rationale of risk versus economic benefit, rather than driven by political dogma. Alas, I fear that neither of the two main parties in B.C. have the will or the ability to deliver what may be viewed as a utopian wish. Oh, for a middle of the road party for middle of the road voters. Hope springs eternal. James McMillan Victoria

Readers respond: Election time columnist, sewage plant, native place names, parking beef Better background check was needed Re: Poor choice for B.C. pre-election piece (Letters, May 17) I found John Palmer’s letter interesting. I, too, thought that the preelection article by Gwyn Morgan (Think hard about B.C.’s future before voting May 14; Opinion, May 10) sounded like a Liberal advertisement. Now we learn more about the elusive Mr. Morgan. He is on the board of the Fraser Institute, but more importantly he recently retired as board chairman of SNC Lavelin, which is presently involved in court proceedings. Black Press rightfully highlighted Mr. Palmer’s letter, which told us of this behaviour, but it would have been better if Black Press had done proper background checks on Mr. Morgan prior to the election, not after. Ginny Gareau Victoria

No sewage plant in my backyard Re: Don’t pass sewage buck (Our View, May 15) I have a suggestion for

anyone who would suggest that locating a biosolids treatment facility on Viewfield Road is “probably the best of a hard situation:” Let’s build this facility right next to your house, and less than two blocks from where your children go to school. Esquimalt Mayor Barb Desjardins’ suggestion of a site on Burnside Road farmland may not be an ideal option. But let’s be clear about two things: Locating this facility on Viewfield Road is completely inappropriate, and it is totally unacceptable to those who live, work and attend school in the communities surrounding this site. Jeff Lukovich Esquimalt

Native place names need verification Re: First Nations to reclaim name of Mount Doug (News, May 17) I am in favour of restoring aboriginal placenames. Ethnographer Wilson Duff also had an interest in seeing them preserved, and devoted much of his career to ensuring these traditional designations not be lost.

Parking lot mishap produces a beef A beef to the person who scraped the back bumper of our black truck between 12:15 and 1:15 p.m. in the Sidney Thrifty Foods parking lot on May 20. The least you could have done was leave a note with your phone number or say you were sorry. Elizabeth Favelle Victoria

Letters Edward Hill/News staff

Tsawout First Nation chief Eric Pelkey, shown here atop Mount Douglas, hopes to see the rocky outcropping renamed Pkols, its traditional First Nations name. One reader agrees with the idea of restoring aboriginal names to local landmarks. He regarded his native informants as friends, and believed that documenting pre-colonial place names could help B.C.’s First Nations establish aboriginal title. In the 1960s, Duff consulted three Songhees elders who volunteered information about a site called Pkaals or Pkols. Two of them told Duff it was “the name of Mount Tolmie,” while the third

said it referred to a “beach outside Cadboro Bay.” I respect the efforts to restore the name Pkols, but would like to know to which place does it refer: Mount Douglas, Mount Tolmie, a beach near Cadboro Bay, all three? I question the likelihood that Gov. James Douglas and his clerks embarked on a day’s ride through the bush and up a mountain (which had no road to

its peak in 1852) to sign a treaty, when he could have the signatories visit him at Fort Victoria, as others had done, and where they frequently came to trade. I understand this contradicts oral history, but no other sources suggest that Douglas (or any colonial officer) would have been so accommodating. K. Dussault Saanich

Candlelight tradition preserves history Don Descoteau News staff

To say people are dying to get into Greater Victoria’s Veterans Cemetery is only a slight exaggeration. The one-hectare military burial ground, a fenced-off oasis couched between the 12th and 17th holes of Gorge Vale Golf Course – known

affectionately as God’s Acre, is down to its final 25 spots. Bob Haldane, organizing committee chair for the annual God’s Acre Candlelight Tribute, says the families of deceased veterans must apply postmortem to Veterans Affairs Canada for placement of their loved ones’ remains into the Esquimalt

cemetery. An old family friend considered a father figure by Haldane, a navy veteran himself, was buried at God’s Acre some years ago. “If I had my way, when I go I’d be right there next to him,” he said. “But it’s not that easy. You can’t just reserve a spot.” The cemetery celebrates its 145th

anniversary next Thursday (May 30) with the annual candlelight vigil. The theme is a remembrance of those who gave their lives in the First World War, which ended 95 years ago. God’s Acre contains the remains of more than 1,000 First World War veterans. The most recent addition came last fall when

the remains of Gordon Marwick, a Canadian veteran of the battle at Vimy Ridge who passed away in the U.S. a handful of years earlier, were placed in a marked grave. The cemetery originated in 1868, when Royal Navy Rear-Admiral George Fowler Hastings bought an acre of land from the Puget Sound

Agricultural Company for $250 as a burial ground for Royal Navy officers and sailors. It was later expanded and in 1947, after decades of separated use by the Canadian navy and army, the two sections were combined as Veterans Cemetery. The nondenominational chapel onsite, built in 1868, is a National

Historic Place. It continues to be used today for special services. Haldane says it’s important that young people attend and participate in the ceremony. “We like to get the youth involved so they never ever forget how their freedom (was preserved).” editor@vicnews.com

Military honours n Military and cadet groups, Scouts and Guides and the general public will participate in the placing of between 2,500 and 3,000 candles at God’s Acre Candlelight Tribute on Thursday (May 30.) n Members of the Naden Band, the Canadian Scottish Regiment pipe and drum band and the Victoria Children’s Choir will perform. n The ceremony begins at 7 p.m. Visitors are asked to arrive no later than 6:30. Parking is limited off Colville Road. The Royal Canadian Legion at 622 Admirals Rd. will run shuttle buses to the ceremony.

Gzowski’s legacy continues Long-running literacy fundraiser takes Belfry stage Natalie North News staff

If you asked Mike Stevens where the heart of the country resides, he’d say, the North – where the struggles of some of our most vulnerable aren’t so different from those closer to the 49th parallel. Canadian harmonica virtuoso, Stevens, has taken time away from his own charity, ArtsCan Circle – a group of musicians and artists who travel to remote Canadian Indigenous communities to link creative artists with youth at risk – to come to Victoria for Literacy Victoria’s largest annual fundraiser, the Peter Gzowski Invitational, May 28 at the Belfry. Working with aboriginal youth in remote communities and funding accessible literacy programs for adults share the common bond of empowering the

often most disenfranchised and vulnerable members of society. And Gzowski, Stevens said, is not only the founder of the PGI golf tournament and subsequent fundraisers in support of literacy, but the late CBC broadcaster remains a true legend in the North. “If you go into an arctic community and talk about Gzowski, people really know him,” Stevens said. “He knew that the heart and the soul of the country was out there. He was championing literacy as a way to give these people a voice. … These communities really have something to say to the rest of Canada.” Stevens has recorded nine studio albums and spent the better part of the last 30 years travelling the world with his harmonica. He now splits his time between touring and ArtsCan, which he founded shortly after meeting youth who were solvent sniffing in Goose Bay, Labrador in 1999. Stevens broke into bluegrass circles by criss-crossing the

country, passing the hat, at a time when he was considered a musical outcast for his instrument choice. “Early on bluegrass didn’t want harmonica. Some people are so strict about what they’ll accept into the fold and call ‘real bluegrass,’” he said. “There was mandolin and guitar and acoustic bass, sometimes dobro, but there wasn’t harmonica. I’d face people who turned their backs to me while I played, or retune their instruments, so I couldn’t play with them.” He persevered through the rejection for years before eventually finding acceptance and greatness in the genre. “Every time it happened, I just got more pissed off and I wanted it to work even more.” Now, he has taken the stage at the Grand Ole Opry more than 300 times. Despite a prolific career, the 55-year-old from Brights Grove, Ont. will play Victoria for the first time ever this month. His set list is undetermined, as always, as Stevens doesn’t know from one

Mclaren shines a light on energy efficiency Grant program offers bright incentive to try efficient, attractive LED lighting

ne of Victoria’s premier lighting showrooms has joined with BC Hydro and the lighting manufacturer Standard Products to provide residents a chance to try out the latest lighting technology at a great price. While similar programs have in the past happened at “big box” retailers, Victoria’s Mclaren Lighting is one of three lighting showrooms in the province to be selected to take part in the pilot project. The state-of-the-art bulbs come with a $5 instant rebate, while the ceiling-mount LEDs offer a $13 instant rebate. The store was able to bring in a large inventory to make the program work, and offer customers a good opportunity to try the product. “They lowered their price and we lowered our price – we wanted to make this price very, very attractive and provide a better quality bulb,” explains McLaren’s general manager Dave Finnigan. “They knew we could promote it properly and we could make it happen,” says Finnigan, pointing out that the initiative is a great opportunity to show customers how much LED lighting has evolved in a very short time. While early years brought a number of dramatic technological changes, today LED lights are enjoying more subtle refinements to make them more user-friendly. “If you buy a bulb today, you’ll keep it for many years and be very happy with it; if you bought it a year ago, you’re now going to be looking at the newer technology,” Finnigan says. While people were concerned initially about the blue tone of the light, for example, the new bulbs offer the same warm tone as a traditional lightbulb, he says. Compared to a traditional lightbulb, however, where 80 per cent of the energy is wasted in heat production versus the production of light, LEDs distribute 80 per cent of

their energy to lighting and just 20 per cent to heat. That offers far greater efficiency – and energy savings. “People want all the benefits of LED but they don’t want to know it’s LED – now they can have both,” Finnigan says. At the showroom, customers can ask the questions and feel confident knowing that the Mclaren team has done the research on the products and technology, and has the knowledge and experience to back it. “When you buy from us, we have done the homework.” And that’s important with a Dave Finnigan technology that has evolved so rapidly. “Never before in the lighting industry has technology changed so quickly,” Finnigan says. The question of quality is key. BC Hydro notes that there’s a huge range in bulb quality and people who may have bought a lesser quality bulb in the past may not have been pleased with the lighting or longevity. These bulbs, however, come with a five-year warranty and are EnergyStar rated – two key points for homeowners looking to find an attractive and efficient lighting solution.

“EnergyStar-qualified LED bulbs use 75 per cent less energy that standard incandescents.” –

Mclaren Lighting is a family-owned and operated showroom celebrating more than 50 years in business, with showrooms in both Victoria and Nanaimo. With the Island’s largest in-stock inventory, the showroom features more than 5,000 items on display. As members of Western Canada’s largest buying group, Mclaren is also able to provide excellent pricing. According to BC Hydro PowerSmart, “LED (LightEmitting Diode) lighting is an emerging technology that holds great promise to revolutionize home lighting over the next decade.” In choosing an LED bulb, look for those with the EnergyStar label, “awarded to select LED products that meet strict efficiency, quality and lifetime criteria,” PowerSmart notes. Energy Star-qualified LED lights use 75-per-cent-less energy than standard incandescents. They last a minimum of 25,000 hours, or 25 years based on average household use, and contain no mercury.

Writing reports ‘much more onerous’ for police officers Continued from Page A1

The Victoria Police Department has been mandated under the city’s austerity program to limit its ever-rising budget to a two-per-cent increase for the coming year. And while VicPD’s crime reduction strategies have hammered the crime rate down – many prolific offenders have been taken off the street, for example – Deputy Chief John Ducker worries about the long-term effect of limiting police personnel levels. “The amount of information we have to provide ahead of getting a case to court; there’s an entire regimen that never existed say, five or six years ago,” he said of changes to day-to-day policing. Writing reports is “much more onerous” for officers today, with more stringent requirements around disclosure for defence attorneys and such things as freedom of information and public

expectation with respect to use of force, Ducker said. “(Reducing the level of crime) hasn’t created a lot of room or a lot of daylight for us,” he said. Fortin, co-chair of the Victoria Police Board, acknowledged that VicPD officers continue to have one of the highest caseloads per officer in the province. “Our officers run from call to call to call. They’re busy.” He added Victoria remains a victim of “core city syndrome,” in which residents of the greater region congregate in the downtown core for work and play. Asked whether the city has any plans to discuss with other municipalities ways of better evening out the workload or funding for policing, Fortin would only say there is already much co-operation between departments. editor@vicnews.com

CFB Esquimalt tours features history, operations Interested in seeing some of the inner workings of Canada’s West Coast naval base? CFB Esquimalt began its annual free public tours of the base this week, offering a taste of the history of the Royal Canadian Navy in the region and a glimpse into the current state of operations at the facility. Due to major construction on the shipside of the base, the traditional bus tours have been replaced by a guided, two-hour

walking tour. On the Naden side of the base property, visitors can take a guided tour of the CFB Esquimalt Naval and Military Museum and take a walking tour of Naden, lasting roughly 90 minutes. The two-hour tours, running every Saturday through Aug. 24 (excluding June 29 and Aug. 3), happen at 11 a.m. and start from the main gate of HMCS Dockyard, located at the west terminus of Esquimalt Road.

The Naden and museum tours, happen weekdays until Aug. 23 (excluding July 1 and Aug. 5), at 11 a.m. Enter at the Naden gate at the intersection of Admirals and Woodway roads and follow the blue line on the road to the right. Valid photo ID is required for all visitors age 12 and over and closed-toe, sturdy shoes are recommended. Photography is permitted. For more information or to book group tours, call 250-363-2595 or email cfbesquimalt@shaw.ca.

Furry friends centre of attention at pet expo We call them our best friends, our fur babies, our adoptive hairy children. They’re our muchloved pets, and they’re the focus of a two-day expo this weekend at Pearkes Recreation Centre. While pets aren’t welcome at the Vancouver Island Pet Expo, mom and dad have their selection of pet-friendly toys and products from 75-plus vendors to take home to Rover. Watch Victoria Police canine unit members strut their stuff, enjoy the wacky weiner dog races and get a kick out of Annie the counting dog. And there’s offerings for non pet owners, too. Members from a number of local pet adoption agencies will be available for adoption consultations. Partial proceeds from the event help to support the Greater Victoria Animal Crusaders. The expo runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday (May 21) and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets (adults $8; kids $6; family of four $20) are available at the door (3100 Tillicum Rd.).

Rotary celebrates 100 years Greater Victoria is celebrating a century of “Service above Self.” As Rotarians throughout B.C. mark 100 years of Rotary in the province, the Rotary Club of Victoria also celebrates this significant milestone. The Victoria club was established Nov. 14, 1913 as the 90th club in the world. Forty-one charter members joined Frank Higgins as the first president for the inaugural banquet at the Empress hotel. Over the years, club presidents included Victoria-area mayors and several MLAs and cabinet ministers. Hockey legend Lester Patrick was president in 1921-22. Over the decades, the Victoria club has contributed to numerous community services and amenities. In 1947 it raised $15,000 to construct the tourism publicity bureau that is now Tourism Victoria. The Island Highway, Crystal Gardens, Willows Fair Ground, United Way Victoria, YMCA, Royal Roads University and the Salvation Army are a few of the institutions that have been supported by the Victoria Rotary Club. In the past decade alone the club has provided more than $1 million to community groups and organizations touching every demographic, including Read Victoria, Mustard Seed Food Bank, Rainbow Kitchen, the CNIB, Victoria Police Victim’s Services, Esquimalt Neighbourhood House, Our Place, Victoria AIDS resource centre, Sooke Family Resource Centre, and the Mount St. Mary Foundation. The club has supported Rotary International’s efforts to eradicate polio, and through Operation Eyesight to help people in developing countries, as well as helping communities in rural Kenya with literacy, education, training and clean water. For more than three decades Victoria was the only Rotary Club in the region, established just 10 years after businessman Paul Harris founded the organization in Chicago. There are now 11 Rotary Clubs from Sidney to Sooke with 600 members in total. Rotarians are men and women from nearly every walk of life, who meet weekly for fellowship and to work on projects and community fundraising activities. At the Rotary Club of WestShore, for example, initiatives range from providing volunteers to read with First Nations children in Metchosin to helping found a successful girls’ school in Malawi, Africa. Other projects include water wells and children’s hygiene boxes in Africa and a play park for young

lsland readers love their local newspaper David Black believes in the power of hometown connections Teresa Bird Black Press

I particularly liked the weeklies.” When his father told him that the Tribune was being sold, Black asked if he could buy it. “He just laughed and said, ‘Why do you think I told you?’” recalls Black fondly. The young Black family moved to Williams Lake “for a couple of years” but “fell in love with small town living” and stayed for a decade. While there Black learned the business at the grassroots level. “I learned a lot about the weekly newspaper business,” says Black. “When somebody left, whether it was an editor or a compositor or a sales rep or a circulation manager or … I ended up doing the job until we found a replacement. I really helped me the rest of my career because I actually know what it takes to do the job.” And from Williams Lake, Black began to expand his career and business. In 1980 he purchased the Ashcroft Journal (now the Ashcroft Cache Creek Journal). Today David Black lives in Victoria and Black Press includes more than 190 publications, in B.C., the Prairies, Washington State and a daily in both Hawaii and Akron, Ohio. So why has Black Press been so successful? “I understand business, I have a head for business. But the trick is people. If you can surround yourself with people who are really good, you will succeed,” explains Black. “We have really good staff.” And that is part of the reason why community newspapers aren’t as threatened by the internet, say Black. “We are putting out as good a local paper as we can afford editorially. It shows in the numerous awards we receive every year and our readership.” says Black. “I think weeklies will continue very much the same, I don’t see huge changes in towns the size of Victoria where

Rick Higgs putting petrol in his 1973 Mini Clubman window van that he and wife Elaine drove 22,000 kilometres in a 70-day ‘lap around Australia.’

the 1973 Mini passing a Caravan on the 22,000 kilometre ‘lap around Australia’ completed by Rick and Elaine Higgs in 70 days.

Travelling the world in vintage Minis ‘Diddy’ Dave Thomas and his 1973 Austin Mini delivery van have left Vancouver at the beginning of May heading to Japan – the Mini by 20-day voyage to Yokohama and Dave ALYN EDWARDS to Tokyo by air. There, CLASSIC Diddy planned to visit RIDES fellow Mini owners, take in a Mini show or two and then ship the Mini out to complete his ‘round-the-world tour. “There are hundreds of Minis in Japan,” Dave enthused while visiting Rick Higgs, his Mini friend in Pitt Meadows, just outside Vancouver. “Japan was the largest export market for the British-built Mini car.” Diddy has already driven his Mini across Canada, up to Inuvik, through Alaska to Prudhoe and then south through the U.S. as far as Arizona. From Japan, his Mini goes by ship to North Korea and then on to Vladivostok for a 10,500-kilometre jaunt across Russia. He describes his trip as “going the wrong way around the world.” The diminutive Diddy is 5’6” tall and the nickname, meaning small, was received at an early age from his lifelong friends on Scotland’s Isle of Mull – the westernmost point of the British Isles. Diddy has been driving Mini vehicles since buying his first as a teenager. “It was a parcel van which was the cheapest to buy with less tax to pay,” he says. “I drove it in rallies in Scotland, Wales and England.” He would later graduate to a Mini factory rally car which he drove for 25 years. He connected with Rick Higgs after shipping his highly modified Mini van to Halifax in May 2009 for a 45,000 -kilometre odyssey across Canada to Alaska. He travelled 10,000 kilometres on dirt roads, including the Dempster Highway to Inuvik and the Dalton Highway to Prudhoe Bay. He spent three weeks in Homer, Alaska after meeting a fellow Mini owner who asked Diddy to “tear it to pieces” so the body could be shipped out for restoration. Diddy plans to return to Homer to reassemble the car for the owner. Diddy headed to Vancouver after

Classy Caddies to roll into Fort Rodd July 14

MA SPE RINE CIA LS

By Jennifer Blyth

This summer, Cadillac and LeSalle enthusiasts are celebrating a decade this summer of honouring their favourite vehicles at Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Site. The popular annual event rolls into Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Ligthhouse National Historic Sites Sunday, July 14, attracting Cadillacs from all over the Island, the Mainland, and even the U.S. “We promote this as a family event, and we encourage everyone to bring their Cadillac, even if they don’t think of it as a ‘Car Show’ vehicle,” says Dewane Ollech, president of the Cadillac Club of BC, Vancouver Island Chapter. “Any age, any model, any condition is our motto.” The show, held each year on the second Sunday of July, is the group’s main fundraiser for its charity, the Greater Victoria Eldercare Foundation. Entertainment, food and door prizes will be available as well as a dash plaque for participants. Registration takes place on the day of the show as participants enter the gounds. “We’re hoping to make this the best year ever!” organizers say.

2014 Subaru Forester aces tough new crash test The Forester earns new IIHS 2013 Top Safety Pick+ rating Metroland Media WheelsTalk.com

Subaru has announced the all-new 2014 Forester has received a Top Safety Pick+ (TSP+) award from the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The 2014 Subaru Forester is the first vehicle to ace every aspect of the challenging small overlap front crash test conducted by the IIHS. The Forester is the only one of 13 small SUVs to earn an overall rating of good in the test. This is not the first time that the Forester has stood out in a new IIHS crash test. When the Institute first rated small SUVs for side protection in 2003, the Subaru model performed the best and was one of only two vehicles to

earn good ratings. This award builds on Subaru’s safety reputation and is the first IIHS designation for 2014 model year Subaru vehicles. Subaru is the only manufacturer with 2013 IIHS Top Safety Pick for all models and the only brand with IIHS Top Safety Picks for all models for four years running (2010-2013). The 2014 Forester is the third Subaru vehicle to earn the TSP+ award. The 2013 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback (built after August 2012) were awarded the Institute’s 2013 TSP+ designation in late-2012. The award requires a “Good” or “Acceptable” rating in the Institute’s new small overlap frontal crash test in addition to meeting the base “TSP” award criteria.

Victoria Hyundai donates new vehicle to BC Cancer Foundation Victoria Hyundai will donate a brand new 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT in support of the BC Cancer Foundation at the annual Jingle Mingle fundraising event’s live auction later this year. The 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT was voted as “Best New Small Car” by the Automotive Journalists of Canada. This is the second year in a row that the dealership has gifted a vehicle in support of the BC Cancer Foundation. The vehicle will be on display at BC

Cancer Foundation fundraising and promotional events throughout the year, in advance of the Dec. 5 auction to raise funds in support of life-saving cancer research at the BC Cancer Agency. “The success of the BC Cancer Foundation could not be had without the support of local organizations like Victoria Hyundai,” said Doug Nelson, President of the BC Cancer Foundation. “This is a great example of local Victorians supporting cancer

patients and their families in their own community.” Stephen Munro, Dealer Principal at Victoria Hyundai, is “thrilled to be able to take part in such a great event. This is a cause that touches us all, and we are lucky to have the best research and treatment programs in the world right here in our own backyard. The BC Cancer Foundation and their partners at the BC Cancer Agency work every day not just for a cure, but also to

replace our fears with hope. We couldn’t be more proud to be a part of that.” The BC Cancer Foundation is the bridge that connects philanthropic support and research breakthroughs in cancer knowledge. Visit www. bccancerfoundation.com to make a donation or to learn how to make a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer. Find more information at www.victoriahyundai.com

2013 Mitsubishi RVR Sport awarded IIHS Top Safety Pick+ Metroland Media WheelsTalk.com

The Mitsubishi Outlander Sport (RVR in Canada) has earned a Top Safety Pick+ award by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

Mitsubishi has announced its best-selling model – the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport compact crossover vehicle also known as the RVR in Canada – has been named a 2013 “Top Safety Pick+” award winner by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The RVR Safety Pick+” award comes in addition to the two straight IIHS Top Safety Pick awards the handsome five-passenger compact crossover has already received in 2012 and 2013. The 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport/RVR was one of only two vehicles in the Small SUV category named a “Top Safety Pick+” by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety from a field of 13 vehicles. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is now awarding the new “Top Safety Pick+” designation as its highest accolade for vehicles that offer superior crash protection.

The 2013 Outlander Sport/RVR “Top Safety Pick+” achievement indicates that it meets the tougher crash safety standards set forth by the non-profit vehicle research and crash test ratings agency that are now necessary to receive its highest accolade. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rates vehicles as “good,” “acceptable,” “marginal” or “poor” based on performance in a moderate overlap frontal crash, small overlap frontal crash, side impact, rollover, plus evaluations of seat/head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts. The “Top Safety Pick+” requires a vehicle to score a “good” rating in at least four of the five tests and no less than an “acceptable” in the fifth test. Added just last year, the small overlap test “replicates what happens when the front corner of the vehicle strikes another vehicle or object like a tree or utility pole,” according to the IIHS.

HEALTH PRODUCTS THAT REALLY WORK FOR A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE Stem Cell Activator

The Porsche 918 Spyder represents the future for sportscars that are green at the same time.

The Porsche 918 Spyder: performance and efficiency METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM

The Porsche 918 Spyder embodies the essence of the Porsche idea. It combines pedigree motor racing technology with excellent everyday versatility, and maximum performance with minimum consumption. The task faced by the development team was to create the super sports car for the next decade with a highly efficient and powerful hybrid drive. Developing the car from scratch with a clean sheet of paper allowed Porsche engineers to come up with a no-compromise concept. The entire car was designed around the hybrid drive. The 918 Spyder therefore demonstrates the potential of the hybrid drive to a degree never before seen: the parallel improvement of both efficiency and performance without one being at the cost of the other. This is the idea that has made the Porsche 911 the most successful sports car in the world for 50 years. In short, the 918 Spyder will act as the gene pool for the Porsche sports cars of the future. The 918 Spyder reveals its close links to motorsport in a variety

of ways. It has been designed, developed and produced by Porsche engineers who build racecars, in co-operation with series production specialists. A great deal of insight gained from the development of Porsche race cars for the Le Mans 24 hours in 2014 is thus integrated into the 918 Spyder – and vice versa. A key message of the 918 Spyder is that the hybrid drive from Porsche is a plus for nocompromise driving dynamics. Drivers can experience this thanks to the unique all-wheel drive concept with a combination of combustion engine and electric motor on the rear axle and the second electric motor on the front axle. The Porsche 918 Spyder also has the potential to break many records. The current lap time for the Nurburgring-Nordschleife is 7:14 minutes. This time was achieved in the presence of international journalists during test drives in September 2012 – more than a year before start of production. The 918 Spyder prototype was therefore approximately 20 seconds quicker than the Porsche Carrera GT.

Helps to activate naturally millions of stem cells from our own bone marrow. The increase in stem cells released from the bone marrow into the blood stream have the potential to become other types of tissue cells with specialized function. Stem cells will multiply and are able to become heart cells, liver cells or any other organ. Located everywhere in our body, stem cells are even under our skin layered between the epidermis and dermis. This is why an increase in stem cells under our skin may help to create a more youthful cell that would replenish elastin and collagen and thus may make us look younger. If our bone marrow does not produce enough stem cells this can result in many illnesses, especially a weak heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, in fact all healthy functions of our body are decreased. Sufficient stem cells in our body have a great potential of self-repair and the ability to rejuvenate tissues. <Women looking for anti-aging help! We all want to slow down aging. After using a bottle of Bell Stem Cell Activator #63 my skin seemed smoother and brighter. My hair looked healthier. It seems to have a cleansing effect. I’m delighted. Leona McCormick, 50, Clgary, AB < All around healing effect! The first thing I noticed after starting Bell Stem Cell Activator #63 #63 was that my skin feels firmer and stronger. My friends commented that my skin looks more vibrant. My doctor at my yearly physical told me that my blood pressure is significantly lower. Many good things are happening. Joy Davison, 55, Calgary, AB

SNORING?

As recommended by Dr. Gifford-Jones M. D.

Loose muscles

in the throat cause snoring, also interrupted breathing and gasping for air (sleep apnea), which brings on being tired all day, need for napping, high blood pressure, strokes, heart attacks, irregular heart beat. Read below how Bell helps thousands, usually first night, inexpensively, with no side effects. Greatly improves quality of life and saves marriages. Survey says 48% snore and 75% are suffering if you include the silent suffering partners. To my surprise, after taking BellSound Sleep #23 I really didn’t snore or gasp for air anymore. I sleep through the night and feel rested and refreshed in the morning. Mark Wilson, 40, Hudson, NH < Sleep apnea capsules worked first night! For last 15 years I had sleep apnea and my doctor made me buy a CPAP #23 machine, which I could not use. Finally Bell #23 helped the first night and every night thereafter. Like a miracle. Unbelievable. Karen Braun, 67, Glace Bay, NS < For 20 years I was waking up frequently gasping for air. During the day I would start napping every time I would sit down, because I was tired. Since taking Bell #23 sleeping 6 hours is heaven. It made a substantial change in my life. Mary C. Myrick, 62, Jackson, MS <It is such a joy not having to use the CPAP machine. I have had sleep apnea for 10 years. Using Bell#23, my wife says there is no more snoring or stoppage of breathing. It is such a joy to be able to roll to left or right with no hose or mask to deal with. Thank you Bell for a great relief. I suggest anyone with these problems to try it. You will be overjoyed with the results. Wayne Burse, 63, Beamsville, ON.

<I tried numerous other remedies all my life that were not effective. Since I discovered #31 I do not have a stuffy nose and itchy eyes when pollen season comes around. I don’t have to walk around like a doped zombie anymore. Leonard Waldner, 44, Delia, AB < For 20 years my life was miserable with sneezing, watery eyes and sinus pressure year-round on most days. I was amazed. On 3rd day all allergies were gone. It was like magic. Becky Gerber, 25, Dover, OH <Golfing without allergy attacks I tried all the medications and none worked. After taking 1 capsule in the morning I’m completely free of all symptoms. Richard Gamez, 74, San Antonio, TX <God bless you I went from doctor to doctor for years with allergy sinus problems. The medications made me still sicker. After starting Bell Allergy Relief one capsule at night I felt like born again the next morning. Therese Noto, 58, New York, NY.
